The following codes, used in the “Floor slab sheet editor for precast, reinforced and prestressed joists” for Mexico have been implemented in the 2014.l version:

  • NTCRC: 2004 (Mexico)
    Normas técnicas complementarias para diseño y construcción de estructuras de concreto.

CYPE’s “Floor slab sheet editor” is a free software program. The program is included in the CYPE program installation DVD. It is available in Spanish for Mexico and Spain, in Catalan and in Portuguese for Brazil and Portugal. The file which installs the program is located in the “Install individual programs” directory of the installation folder of any of the indicated languages. Please recall, that when the complete CYPE program version is downloaded from the download area of our website, it consists of a compressed file containing the CYPE software installation DVD. 

CYPE’s “Floor slab sheet editor” is used to introduce data sheets for precast, reinforced and prestressed joist floor slabs that are not included in CYPECAD. The “Floor slab sheet editor” generates an FVA format file which CYPECAD can import and then use the floor slab data sheets that have been introduced in the editor. This is a very useful tool for users wishing to analyse and design projects containing precast, reinforced or prestressed joist floor slabs not included in the program (if they have been provided with data sheets from the manufacturers), and for manufacturers wishing to provide CYPECAD users with the properties of the precast, reinforced or prestressed joist floor slabs so they may be used in their projects (if the manufacturers’ joist floor slabs are not included in CYPECAD).

More information can be found on the “Floor slab sheet editor for precast, reinforced and prestressed joists” on our Spanish webpage (Download, Installation, Data introduction...). 

 A link is also available on the same webpage to download a compressed file to install CYPE’s “Floor slab sheet editor for precast, reinforced and prestressed joists” individually for the indicated languages.
